Investing in Shelter Capital and Emergency Services Program is critical to provide safe and responsive shelter spaces across MN. Let's make it happen. #mnleg@mhwiklund@RepKeeler
We saw how high demand was this past summer when we hit full capacity. With rising eviction rates that rival pre-pandemic levels, the #MNleg must act now to support our shelter system and provide stability for people experiencing homelessness!
We want everyone to have a permanent home, but the path to stable housing is often a journey with many steps, which is why Emergency Service Program investments are so important. #mnleg
Shelter providers in MN need support to renovate and build new shelters for their communities. Culturally-responsive and person-centered designs have a big impact for the safety of shelter guests #mnleg@DavePinto@LizBoldonMN
The Housing Finance & Policy Committee will hear MICAH's #LeadSafeHomes Bill TODAY @ 3pm! State Office Building 5. We hope you can attend and/or call members of the committee to express your support! #mnleg

Congress must advance anti-racist policies and provide the large-scale, sustained investments and
reforms needed to ensure renters with the lowest incomes have an affordable place to call home.

Rents are rising everywhere, & those with the lowest incomes who were already struggling to pay rent are
getting squeezed the most. Congress must invest in proven solutions – like rental assistance, public hsg,
& Housing Trust Fund – to help more families. #HousingInvestmentsNow
We have an incredibly opportunity to provide #HousingInvestmentsNow. Please contact your congressional reps and urge them to act!
